#BackTo60 Looks like our monies were used to reduce the national debt. Did any fifties women give permission for that? I didn’t. #WePaidInYouPayOut. #FullRestitution #AllItTakesIsAllOfUs #IStandWithJoanne

The collapse of Reform UK is officially happening.
The latest polling figures demonstrate that they are rapidly sinking into single-digit territory.
By December, they will be lagging behind both the Liberal Democrats and Restore Britain.
It turns out that their entire political movement was nothing more than a temporary internet trend driven by loud social media accounts rather than real voters.

The way National Grid are ‘regulated’ is a scandal.
This is vital national infrastructure that has to be invested in, but we need not allow them to make such rip off margins. Right wing commentators have weighed in conflating this with net zero - that’s nonsense, the grid we have is not fit for purpose - and the move to green energy is unavoidable - and in our own economic interests.
It’s not about net zero it’s about how we control the profits of privately owned monopolies.

Farage suggests he expects damning verdict on £5m ‘gift’ from parliament’s sleaze watchdog.
Could lead to a 10 day suspension from the House of Commons, petition for a by-election.
Reform UK is mostly funded by billionaires not living in the UK.

Some of the comments missing the context of this screenshot. This was not a recommendation, nor was it the cornerstone of the show. This was a response to last ditch desperate "I can't afford to put any heat on" comments.
As I said on the show we should not be in this position, this is not a "do it" but it is a reality for some and last ditch help especially with a 25% rise likely to hit over half of homes in January.
Please watch what I actually said don't judge a TV show off a still image.

The right sold out entire industries and left communities to rot.
They replaced real production and decent jobs with an economy based on speculation and service alone.
Now they sneer at the consequences.
The answer isn't to strip away welfare but rebuild jobs and communities.

There is no anomaly. This is not a glitch in the matrix.
Reform UK are in dire straits.
Being mired in sleaze, crime and racism is not very endearing to the public it turns out.
Farage lost control/gave up over the summer, and it shows — he only ever rocks up to high-profile events now and the rest of the party has been left to rot.
His ego has been sorely bruised by a series of damaging interviews, none more so than when Sally Nugent tore him a new one on BBC Breakfast.
And nothing has been the same since the £5m grenade was detonated by Anna Isaac at the Guardian.
The polling drop is now sustained; long gone are the days of Richard Tice and Zia Yusuf crowing about their days in the No. 1 slot in the charts.
Unfortunately for the party in turquoise, the hubris and performative politicking of those heady days is now coming back to haunt them.
Even their online troll army is relatively quiet these days — I can't remember the last time someone posted to me 'Suck it up, Nigel will be your next PM'.
Is it End of Days for the Nigel Farage Project?
I believe so, and we haven't even had the result of his Parliamentary Standards investigation yet.

Let's stop pretending this isn't happening. Vulnerable, traumatised children are being placed in unregulated accommodation, despite the law. Some providers have directors who aren't properly vetted and managers with little or no experience.
A shortage of placements is no excuse for putting children's lives at risk.
These are CHILDREN, not commodities. The Government must act before more lives are lost.

On the upside, the £36bn the Tories plan to take away from the sick and disabled will just about cover the £37bn they gave Dido Harding to run the Test and Trace XL spreadsheet

We respected the referendum result. We left. That does not mean we must accept the damage forever or pretend voters cannot change their minds.
Look at Beth Rigby’s Makerfield focus group. She expected a Brexit backlash, but reported that nearly all the Leave voters in the group regretted their decision and were open to looking again. Labour’s heartlands are allowed to reconsider, too.
Brexit has damaged our economy. The case for rejoining is about improving lives through stronger trade, investment, jobs and better-funded public services—for everyone, including the Labour heartlands.
Labour should be making that case and seeking a fresh democratic mandate.
Democracy is an ongoing process, it didn't stop in 2016.
The Labour heartlands voted strongly to leave the EU.
Labour MP @Jonathan_Hinder has advised the government that appearing to reverse what voters in core Labour seats voted for will be damaging for Labour.
We must respect the referendum result.

Don’t think our off-air conversations are supposed to be broadcast…
But in this case
Given I was up against Reform’s George Finch
…I’ll make an exception

🚨 The Trump crypto investigation leads directly to questions about Farage and Reform UK’s mega funding.
🆘 Ben Delo the BitMEX co-founder convicted in America of a Bank Secrecy Act offence and later pardoned by Trump gave Reform £36mn.
🛟 Crypto billionaire Christopher Harborne reportedly followed with another £36mn.
Why are two crypto billionaires giving one British party £72mn?
What policies do they support?
What connections exist between these donors, Trump’s crypto network and Reform?
And why does Britain permit individual billionaires to pour unlimited sums into political parties?
As US Democrats subpoena crypto companies and investigate Trump’s pardons, profits and donors, Britain must follow the evidence wherever it leads.
America is beginning to expose the crypto-politics machine and this must extend to the British branch.
🚨 Crypto was sold as decentralised freedom. Under Trump, it appears to have become a vehicle for political access, personal enrichment and influence that is exceptionally difficult to trace.
Trump reportedly earned more than $1.16bn from crypto sales and token royalties while his administration deregulated the industry, pardoned a convicted crypto executive and received donations from crypto businesses.
The industry then poured nearly $200mn into the midterms and still lost.
Democrats now have subpoena powers. They must follow every transaction:
Who supplied the money?
Who ultimately owned it?
Which politicians benefited?
Which pardons, licences or policy changes followed?
And Britain must pay attention. As enormous crypto-linked donations enter British politics, we need proof of the original source, not merely the name of the person or company that transferred them.
Blockchain may record transactions. It does not automatically reveal who is really standing behind them.

What a shame that after all his hard work being the most patriotic MP in the last couple of days, that Farage is about to be kicked out of Parliament.

A party needs six or more seats to lay a wreath.
Danny Kruger, elected as a Tory in 2019. Robert Jenrick, elected as a Tory in 2014. Andrew Rosindell, elected as a Tory in 2001. Suella Braverman elected as a Tory in 2015.
They’ve even scammed the rules for laying a wreath…

Sadly @thetimes is reporting this report as valid research, but it's done by a rightwing outfit, hardly unbiased research?

🤔 Network Rail was founded on 3 October 2002 to replace Railtrack, a private, for-profit company that collapsed following a series of major rail accidents in Great Britain.
Also, the train companies are being nationalised.
